His body dropped to his knees unwillingly with such force that even his knees cracked as a crater developed under his feet. At the same time, footsteps resounded in the distance. A young man with emotionless cold eyes had arrived. Xu Shan finally arrived at the place. With a single wave of his hand, the flames stopped and Duan Jin dropped to his knees. He stepped closer to the lifeless body on the ground, revealing a frown. Duan Jin tried speaking to explain his side. However, to his…

Duan Mu's mother opened the door, only to find the Patriarch of the Duan Clan at her doorstep. Initially, she thought that he came here to insist that she attend the ceremony with others. However, for some reason, she noticed something strange. The man's eyes appeared somewhat blank, as he gazed at her strangely. "You..." She tried speaking, but before she could finish, the Patriarch grabbed her throat, before pushing her inside the room. With his other hand, he closed the door behind…

The night was dark and quiet. The stars twinkled in the sky, casting a faint glow over the surroundings. A soft breeze rustled the leaves on the trees, creating a soothing melody. The only sound was the distant hooting of an owl. While the outside was so peaceful, the Duan Clan was bustling with activity. All the guests had arrived. Most of the influential people were already there, getting welcomed by the Duan Clan Members, who were keen on getting acquainted with these people as well. Most of…

Everyone in the Duan Clan was busy in preparations for the banquet. At the same time, the Duan Clan Patriarch personally went to meet Duan Mu who was with his mother. Meeting the young man and his mother, the first thing he did was apologize for the behavior of the clan toward them. At the same time, he thanked Duan Mu for now saying anything about it to Xu Shan. He didn't know that Xu Shan was already informed about everything, but he intentionally didn't do anything about it. After…

The Duan Clan Ancestor was excited as soon as Xu Shan agreed to his invitation to stay at their house. This allowed them an added advantage over the other. And for that, he was really grateful to Duan Mu. He had already decided to reward Duan Mu heavily, including giving his mother a really high position in the clan. He didn't know how people behaved with him. If they knew, he would even be willing to kill all those people himself, just to please Duan Mu. The Duan Clan Patriarch stood in the…

"Did they find out?" Duan Mu exclaimed with concern, noticing people on the streets move aside to clear the path of the Ancestors of the Three Clan, who were followed by the Patriarchs. He couldn't help but wonder if all these people were here to kill Xu Shan, realizing how dangerous he was. Even though Duan Mu knew that Xu Shan was stronger than his Patriarch, even he wasn't sure what was going to happen if all the Ancestors fought together. Duan Mu slowed down, as his feet started…

"This..." Duan Mu looked at Gabriel in surprise. Even he found it hard to believe that he had become stronger without even doing anything. Was a single mysterious fruit so miraculous? His eyes revealed a desire to have even more. "This is just the beginning," Xu Shan told the young man, who led him out of the forest. Duan Mu didn't doubt Xu Shan at all! Instead, he was happy that he got this opportunity. Because of Xu Shan, now he had an opportunity that he never would've had otherwise. …

The energy that entered Duan Mu's body was divided into two distinct parts. One half of that energy was being absorbed in his flesh, instead of creating a core. At the same time, the other half of the energy simply disappeared! Even Duan Mu didn't know where it went. However, Xu Shan was observing everything carefully. He noticed where the other half of the energy went. It didn't stay inside the body of Duan Mu at all. Instead, it was absorbed by the pendant of the young man. 'That pendant…

"What can I give you?" The young man raised his head. He was ready to do anything to gain strength. He had already seen all the dark side of this world. He understood that without strength, he couldn't even protect himself, let alone protect others. If he had strength, then he wouldn't have been treated like this! His mother wouldn't have suffered to an extent where even the servants of the clan talked back to her! He had gone through the suffering of the weak. He wanted to leave that behind,…

With everyone else dead, there was only one person left... It was Duan Mu, the person who was the weakest in the group. He was also the person who hadn't shown even the slightest of hostility toward him. However, that wasn't enough for Xu Shan to leave a witness. Surprisingly enough, Duan Mu hadn't tried to escape. Instead, he was sitting on his knees, looking at the dead bodies of the girl and Duan Yang. Instead of sadness, his eyes contained a hint of happiness, as if he was truly pleased that…
